Tonight (Wed.) at An Tua Nua, and tomorrow at Ryles, you will again
be able to register for the 5th Annual Boston Salsa Congress for a discounted
$150 (instead of $180, the current price--save $30), so bring your
checkbook! (You must register and pay that night to get the
discount.)

No Red Sox home game tonight, so come check out the Salsa
Party at An Tua Nua! www.salsaboston.com/antuanua $2 discount coupon
available for those on a budget. Lessons at 8 and 9pm, dance 'til 1. 21+
for the time being--we're working on it.

This Sunday as usual, Salsa
Cruise #10, 8-10pm. Should be a big one. Those who braved the rain
last week ended up with a great cruise and some great views on the foggy harbor!
"Salsa Cruises never get rained out". You heard it here first!

Night at An Tua Nua with SalsaBostonevery
Wednesday*******************************************

Have you checked
out our new home yet?!! It's a great space and it's getting even
better

An Tua Nua is a great contemporary Irish bar & grill on
Beacon Street just outside of Kenmore Square (only about 3 blocks from
Sophia's). In the back they have a dance club about the same size as the
upstairs at Sophia's, with a sizable dance floor that holds about 150 people, a
bar, and plenty of lounge seating.

Close to the green line (St.
Mary's on the C train), plenty of street and lot
parking.

Irish/America/Bar food available until 10pm. I have eaten
there, it is tasty and modestly priced.

Note: they have Karaoke with my
man Kev MacDaddy in the front portion of the bar when you walk in, but don't let
that scare you... Salsa is in the back room! Full Bar. Please check
your coat.
